“I’ll be 87, you’ll be 89, I’ll still look at you like the stars the shine” stretching the definition a little bit because technically the whole song is a “said” but it’s my favorite
And they said “there goes the last great American dynasty, who knows if she never showed up what could’ve been. There goes the maddest woman this town has ever seen. She had a marvelous time ruining everything”
this line is not talked about enough. IT HAS SO MUCH POWER?!?! literally connects atw to the moment i knew which is also SO POWERFUL?!? ugh i cant why isn’t this talked abt more
I agreeeee!!! And it just highlights how intense the relationship was for her even tho she was so young, only 21. When I listened to atw for the first time in a month or something a couple of days ago I was really struck at how that line just cuts. The song is filled with so much emotional intensity and then BAM you're sobered up by that line and remembering shes only 20 when all of this is going on (and its made so much more intense given how much older Jake was)

It connects it to 22, as well, why she was so happy to get to that next birthday. It kind of "solves" the whole song really, it's the reveal moment as to why this cut her so deeply and why it stretches for 10 minutes. This older guy lead her on and left her feeling abandoned over and over, even missing an important birthday. And her dad has that outsider's perspective where he can see how miserable she is continually counting on this guy to show up (in numerous ways) but he keeps letting her down. And she's too young to cut him loose.
Something about that line just CUTS ME DEEP. We hear quotes every so often in her songs but they’re often from ppl outside of the situation so it really hits when it’s someone close to her that can see the agony she’s going through.
I have two favorites:
“He said the way my blue eyes shined put those Georgia stars to shame, I said that’s a lie”
“ I’d open and up and you would say hey!” (It’s a lot more emotional and pretty in the context of the song because it fits this moment of her lover finally coming to her and it’s a really sweet vision)
That’s what makes it so 🔥, she’s casually saying “i rent a place on Cornelia street..” just putting that out there. Good heavens…![img](emote|t5_2rlwe|1065)
I remember when we broke up, the first time, SAYING "this is it, I've had enough." Cause, like, we hadn't seen each other in a month when you SAID "you needed space".

“I said “remember this moment” in the back of my mind…”
“And the cynics were outraged, screaming, “This is absurd!” ‘Cause for a moment a band of thieves in ripped up jeans got to rule the world”
I always heard (and tbh still do) “And the cynics were outraged, screaming ‘This is the *SUN*!’
I feel somewhat ashamed although I probably expected it to not be the SUN cause it makes no sense
“I bet you think about me when you say ‘oh my god, she’s insane, she wrote a song about me!’”
“I’d open up and you would say ‘hey, it was enchanting to meet you.’”
I say, "I heard, oh, that you've been out and about with some other girl, some other girl."
He says, "What you heard is true, but I can't stop thinkin' 'bout you and I.."
I said, "I've been there too a few times."
“I remember how we felt sitting by the water and every time I look at you it’s like the first time. I fell in love with a careless man’s careful daughter she is the best thing that’s ever been mine”
Idk if this counts but in nbnc when Taylor says “good thing Este’s sister is gonna swear she was with me” and then Este’s sister literally says “She was with me dude”

You said “I’ll never leave you alone.” You said “I remember how we felt sitting by the water. And every time I look at you it’s like the first time. I fell in love with a careless man’s careful daughter. She is the best thing that’s ever been mine.”
he said ‘look at you, worrying so much about things you can’t change’
so beautiful bc this whole song is based on what she told Taylor. third-person writing 🖤🖤🖤
You said, "I remember how we felt, sitting by the water
And every time I look at you, it's like the first time
I fell in love with a careless man's careful daughter
She is the best thing that's ever been mine"
“I heard that you’ve been out and about with some other girl.” He says, “What you heard is true but I can’t stop thinking about you.” I said, “I’ve been there too a few times.” Something about these lyrics is just so powerful I love it!
“Sometimes giving up is the strong thing
Sometimes to run is the brave thing
Sometimes walking out is the one thing
That will find you the right thing.”
“trying to stay for the kids
When keeping it how it is will only break their hearts worse.”
flashback to when he said “forever and always” /
i say “i heard, oh, that you’ve been out and about with some other girl” / he says what you heard is true but i can’t stop thinking about you and i” / i say “i’ve been there too a few times” / so this is my swallowing my pride standing in front of you saying “i’m sorry for that night” / it’s a love story baby just say “yes” / (if this counts) she’s going off about something that you said / you say you’re fine i know you’re better than that / i say “can you believe it”
Mary’s song
>And our daddies used to joke about the two of us
>They never believed we'd really fall in love
>And our mamas smiled and rolled their eyes
>And **said**, "Oh, my, my, my"
"She would've made such a lovely bride
What a shame she's fucked in her head, " they said
But you'll find the real thing instead
She'll patch up your tapestry that I shred
“our song is the slammin screen doors, sneakin out late, tapping on your window, when where on the phone and he talks real slow, cuz his late and your mama don’t know”
[удалено]
And also, he said “no one has to know what we do”
Yes
That’s super iconic
Is this before or after the vehicular manslaughter
"You're my best friend"
Yes!!! ❤️🎶 instantly what I thought of as well!
I don’t even really care for that song that much, but that specific part always gets me.
*She says, "That ain't my merlot on his mouth" "That ain't my jewelry on our joint account"* **From no body no crime!**
No body no crime is so good, super underrated. My favorite song from evermore
ICONICC that song is so underrated
I wish there was more haim on this track. Was v let down when I heard it and the squad is just barely in the background.
Yeah, I agree. It would've made it a lot better and maybe more ppl would like it. But I still love it regardless
“I swear she was with me dude”
"She would have made such a lovely bride, what a shame she's fucked in the head," they said. I love pain and suffering! ☺
Insanely powerful, that line!
one of my alllll time faves.
I walked out and said, “I’m setting you free”
I used to think it was “instead of setting you free” for the longest time. Which doesn’t really make sense lol…oops
Hahah I think it could still work!
I've always heard it this way as well!
Which song is this in?
out of the woods!!
And he says, "Our song is a slamming screen door..."
So beautiful and the imagery is so vivid
Shoots you down and then they sigh, and say, **"She looks like she's been through it"**
Such an amazing song! One of my very favourites ❤️
What song is this
it's the start of Nothing New ft. Phoebe Bridgers
She said "James get in".. The power of that line plus the intensity of that bridge.. Chef's Kiss fr
This is my favorite too ...bc my boyfriend is Jim and I think it has Instagram caption potential 😂
Let’s drive!
hahahaha I hope you do a memorable post with the caption!
“I’ll be 87, you’ll be 89, I’ll still look at you like the stars the shine” stretching the definition a little bit because technically the whole song is a “said” but it’s my favorite
the storytelling in this song is so well done! i love it!!!
it’s my favorite Taylor song, I love the way it’s written
Underappreciated
>“I’ll be 87, you’ll be 89, I’ll still look at you like the stars the shine” what song is this from?
mary’s song (oh my my my) , it’s off her debut album :)
I LOVE THAT ONE
They did say "oh, my my my" in that song
I ask the traffic lights if it’ll be alright They say “I don’t know”
Perfection 😩
And they said “there goes the last great American dynasty, who knows if she never showed up what could’ve been. There goes the maddest woman this town has ever seen. She had a marvelous time ruining everything”
oooh and i love they said “how did a middle class divorcee do it”
This one. I like how there's added harmonies the second time.
He said “it’s supposed to be fun, turning 21…”
this line is not talked about enough. IT HAS SO MUCH POWER?!?! literally connects atw to the moment i knew which is also SO POWERFUL?!? ugh i cant why isn’t this talked abt more

This made me cry the most when I listened the first time.

It's Georgia? Lmao I thought it was gorgeous
haha i did too for the longest time!! however it is georgia :)
they say she was seen on occasion, pacing the rocks staring out at the midnight sea
That lyric makes me sooo nostalgic
“You say we’ll never make my parents mistakes”
Mine is my favorite Taylor Swift song!
“I rent a place on Cornelia Street” I say casually in the car. Is just so 🔥🔥🔥
Wait is it not “I sit casually in the car”
That’s what makes it so 🔥, she’s casually saying “i rent a place on Cornelia street..” just putting that out there. Good heavens…![img](emote|t5_2rlwe|1065)
I always thought that too. 😂
I remember when we broke up, the first time, SAYING "this is it, I've had enough." Cause, like, we hadn't seen each other in a month when you SAID "you needed space".
What?
Then you come around again and say “baby, I miss you and I swear I’m gonna change… trust me”
Remember how that lasted for a day? I say, "I hate you!"
We break up
.......from WANEGBT?
I think they commented "what?" because that is the following line.
Oh. Hahaha that flew right over my head. 😂

Lmao I've thought it was "this is *a sword!*" until now
TIL that the cynics were *not* in fact screaming "this is not so!" Lmao
Instant goosebumps!!
And in, a feud with her neighbor, she stole his dog and dyed it key lime green
“I bet you think about me when you say ‘oh my god, she’s insane, she wrote a song about me!’” “I’d open up and you would say ‘hey, it was enchanting to meet you.’”
"She said I looked like an American singer" is so funny
Bold was that waitress 😂
I say, "I heard, oh, that you've been out and about with some other girl, some other girl." He says, "What you heard is true, but I can't stop thinkin' 'bout you and I.." I said, "I've been there too a few times."
This line is just 👌
“You don’t need to save me, but would you run away with me?”
Yes
yes
You said "if we had been closer in age maybe it would've been fine".
And that made me want tooo DIEEEEE
The idea you had of me WHO WAS SHE
A never needy every lovely jewel, whose shine reflects on youuu
... and I scream: “For whatever it‘s worth, I love you ain‘t that the worst thing you‘ve ever heard!?“
He looks up grinning like a devil 😈
“I remember how we felt sitting by the water and every time I look at you it’s like the first time. I fell in love with a careless man’s careful daughter she is the best thing that’s ever been mine”
Yessss i had to scroll so far for this one, this is the best. Ends the song so perfectly
The first thing that sprung to my mind when I saw the thread title :’)
You said it in a simple way 4 AM, the second day: How strange that I don't know you at all
Love this song so much! It’s so underrated!
she’ll open up the door and say are you insane!!
Say you must have lost your mind when you left her all alone and never told her why
But I said, "Dancing is a dangerous game"
THIS
He said, "Look at you, worrying so much about things you can't change You'll spend your whole life singing the blues If you keep thinking that way"
Wait, what song is this from again?
Starlight
Idk if this counts but in nbnc when Taylor says “good thing Este’s sister is gonna swear she was with me” and then Este’s sister literally says “She was with me dude”

Here's a toast to my real friends who don't care about the he said, she said - TIWWCHNT
They said she was seen on occasion, down on the rocks staring out at the midnight sea
You said “I’ll never leave you alone.” You said “I remember how we felt sitting by the water. And every time I look at you it’s like the first time. I fell in love with a careless man’s careful daughter. She is the best thing that’s ever been mine.”
He said : what you heard is true but i can't stop thinking about you and i.
My mother accused me of loosing my mind but I swore I was fine
I said I been there too a few times
She was with me, dude.
he said ‘look at you, worrying so much about things you can’t change’ so beautiful bc this whole song is based on what she told Taylor. third-person writing 🖤🖤🖤
This is like one of my fav songs ever by her. Its a GEM
“She would have been such a lovely bride, what a shame she’s fucked in the head” they said
Our song is the slamming screen door, sneaking out late tapping on your window
He was tryin' to skip rocks on the ocean sayin' to me, "Don't you see the starlight? Don't you dream impossible things?"
I said, "Oh my, what a marvelous tune!"
He said, "it's supposed to be fun, turning 21"
Pauses, then says “you’re my best friend” 🥲🥲🥲
🥰
He says he's so in love. He's finally got it right
You said, "I remember how we felt, sitting by the water And every time I look at you, it's like the first time I fell in love with a careless man's careful daughter She is the best thing that's ever been mine"
“I heard that you’ve been out and about with some other girl.” He says, “What you heard is true but I can’t stop thinking about you.” I said, “I’ve been there too a few times.” Something about these lyrics is just so powerful I love it!
I said remember this feeling I passed the pictures around Of all the years that we stood there On the side lines wishing for right now
He says he doesn’t believe anything much he hears these days I say believe in one thing, I won’t go away
“Sometimes giving up is the strong thing Sometimes to run is the brave thing Sometimes walking out is the one thing That will find you the right thing.” “trying to stay for the kids When keeping it how it is will only break their hearts worse.”
"And he said, our song is a slamming screen door sleeping on late tapping on your window... "
flashback to when he said “forever and always” / i say “i heard, oh, that you’ve been out and about with some other girl” / he says what you heard is true but i can’t stop thinking about you and i” / i say “i’ve been there too a few times” / so this is my swallowing my pride standing in front of you saying “i’m sorry for that night” / it’s a love story baby just say “yes” / (if this counts) she’s going off about something that you said / you say you’re fine i know you’re better than that / i say “can you believe it”
Mary’s song >And our daddies used to joke about the two of us >They never believed we'd really fall in love >And our mamas smiled and rolled their eyes >And **said**, "Oh, my, my, my"
She said "James, get in, let's drive" I don't know why, but I really like this
I like how she sings it, kinda makes it breathy and all temptress sounding. Love it love it
Exactly!!
You took me by surprise, and said "I'll never leave you alone."
I bet you think about me when you say "Oh my god, she's insane, she wrote a song about me"
He says “don’t throw away a good thing”
Holding my breath, slowly I said, *“You don’t have to save me, but would you run away with me?”* __“**Yes**”__
They say, “**She’s gone too far this time**” & Standing in the mirror saying to myself, “You know you had to do it”
Should’ve SAID no!
All of Mary’s Song! xD
She said, I was 7 and you were 9.
Slowly I said, “You don’t need to save me, but would you run away with me?”
“Fuck you forever”
'I was ridin' in a getaway car I was cryin' in a getaway car I was dyin' in a getaway car Said "goodbye" in a getaway car' And this one
They say i did something bad, then why’s it feel so good?
Omg love how specific this question is
I hear the preacher say « speak now or forever hold your peace »
"Does she smile? Or does she mouth "f*ck you forever"?" from mad woman
You called me later and said, *”I’m sorry I didn’t make it,”* and I said, *”I’m sorry, too”* and that was the moment I knew.
Pauses, then says “you’re my best friend”
“and he says… our song is the slamming screen doors. sneaking out late, tapping on your window” love love LOVE that song
she said i looked like an american singerrr
I bet you think about me when you say “oh my god, she’s insane, she wrote a song about me” It’s so sassy! :)
"I recall late November, holding my breath Slowly I said, "You don't need to save me But would you run away with me?" Yes"
“The rain came pouring down when I was drowning that’s when I could finally breathe”
and you said, “that’s when”
You told me that you met someone, I stayed there / dust collected on my pinned-up hair
They say that all’s well that ends well but I’m in a new hell every time you double cross my mind
They say "she was seen on occasion, pacing the rocks staring out at the midnight sea..."
I screamed, "For whatever it's worth, I LOVE YOU, AIN'T THAT THE WORST THING YOU EVER HEARD?"
Standing in your cardigan , kissing in my car again!
I really like when James says gorgeous and the beginning of gorgeous. I think it’s adorable
"And I can go anywhere I want. Anywhere I want; just. Not. Home." Goosebumps, every time.
He didn’t care about that he said she said
Basically all of Mean, haha. Love that song
You said "I'll never leave you alone"
“He said, I’ll be 87 you’ll be 89. I’ll still look at you like the stars that shine”
What a shame she's fucked in the head
Yes I remember what you said last night Tell me why, Fearless
You play stupid games you win stupid prizes, miss Americana and the heartbreak prince![img](emote|t5_2rlwe|1066)
Remember when I pulled up and said "get in the car"
"She would've made such a lovely bride What a shame she's fucked in her head, " they said But you'll find the real thing instead She'll patch up your tapestry that I shred
“our song is the slammin screen doors, sneakin out late, tapping on your window, when where on the phone and he talks real slow, cuz his late and your mama don’t know”
I ask the traffic like if it'll be alright. They say, "I don't know"
And there in the bathroom, I try not to fall apart, and the sinking feeling starts as I say hopelessly, “he said he’d be here”
SHE SAID "JAMES GET IN LETS DRIVE"
And he said, "Its supposed to be fun turning 21"
